Jacoby Brissett News

Jacoby Brissett's Dynasty Value Largely Unaffected by Contract Situation

Sunday, June 21, 11:36 AM

When the Arizona Cardinals signed quarterback Jacoby Brissett to a two-year, $12.5 million deal in 2025, it was presumably to serve as the backup to two-time Pro Bowler Kyler. With the relationship between Murray and the Cardinals deteriorating shortly after that, Brissett ended up starting the final 12 games of the 2025 season and now finds himself as a bridge quarterback for either 2026 third-round pick Carson Beck or whoever the team hands the reins to in 2027. Seeking a guaranteed commitment in line with the elevated role, Brissett skipped all voluntary offseason activities and did not participate in team drills during mandatory minicamp. While a lot can still happen in the three months leading up to the Cardinals' Week 1 matchup with the Chargers, only a full split from the team would drastically alter Brissett's dynasty value ahead of the 2026 season. Brissett is 33 years old and potentially holding the final starting opportunity of his career, and with the Cardinals signing running back Tyler Allgeier in free agency and spending the third pick in the 2026 NFL Draft on Jeremiyah Love, it's unlikely that he sees the type of passing volume he did a year ago. Still a usable second or third quarterback in superflex leagues, Brissett is RotoBaller's dynasty QB31.

Anthony Richardson Sr. News

Anthony Richardson Sr. a Dynasty Hold with No Clear Path Back to Relevance

Thursday, June 11, 7:01 AM

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson Sr. has been limited to 15 starts and fewer than 400 total dropbacks since being selected fourth overall in the 2023 NFL Draft. With him now clearly behind Daniel Jones in the Colts' quarterback room, and Jones progressing well from the Achilles tear that ended his 2025 season, already throwing in 7-on-7 sessions, Richardson's next opportunity for starting work remains a mystery. With Indianapolis declining his fifth-year option, 2026 marks the final year of Richardson's rookie contract, but barring the unexpected, he will reach free agency with barely over a 50% career completion percentage and more interceptions than touchdowns. While he will still only be 25 at that point, it's unlikely he will find anything more than a short-term commitment and a chance to compete for a backup role. With a skill set custom-designed for fantasy football, he remains a dynasty hold at RotoBaller's QB35, as all he needs to do is find the field to score points, even if it does not translate directly to real-life NFL success.
